So folks how did you felt about being spoiled with 5 hours of WRC?

Probably would have been nice if I actually got the channel.

Maybe, but they won't just sell you one channel. I'll stick with an hour and a half of Eurosport coverage for now.

I was impressed. The commitment HDTheater brought to the sport is a good omen for their future coverage. All that seems to be missing is an info show a la Inside Grand Prix

Loved the extra shows before the first rally. Wished WRC had raced the Monte Carlo Rally this year. :( Am I asking for too much to want to see the IRC races too? Maybe Speed could show that, give HD Theater a little competition.

I'm waiting for it to snow in August.

I would love to see it in Canada, but we can't so...

Once again, another racing series that strikes a deal with a network that nobody can watch...what's the point really?

It's fantastic, and in HD as well! I just upgraded to a 46" plasma, and it's brilliant. Speed could learn a thing or two

My problem is that I got used to watching semi-live coverage on race weekend, but it feels as if the broadcasts are tape-delayed by several weeks... or maybe this is because the 2010 season has not kicked off yet.
Does anyone know if they intend to broadcast results on race weekends?
